EEG-EKG, or when 1 + 1 is more than 2

Imaging tumor phenotype: 1 plus 1 is more than 2.

Preeclampsia more than 1 disease: or is it?

In this issue of Hypertension, Rasmussen and Irgens provide strong support for the relationship of preeclampsia and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). They also provide data that support but also some that argue against the concept that the pregnancy complication, preeclampsia, may be more than one disease.1 In previous studies these authors demonstrated that women who have had a growth-re...

v 1 1 F eb 2 00 5 Is there more than one thermal source ?

BRAHMS has the ability to study relativistic heavy ion collisions over a wide range of p T and rapidity [1]. This allows us to test whether thermal models can be generalized to describe the rapidity dependence of particle ratios. This appears to work with the baryo-chemical potential changing more rapidly than the temperature. Using fits to BRAHMS data for the 5% most central Au+Au collisions w...

Synaptotagmin: is 2 better than 1?

Editor's Note: These short reviews of a recent paper in the Journal, written exclusively by graduate students or postdoctoral fellows, are intended to mimic the journal clubs that exist in your own departments or institutions. For more information on the format and purpose of the Journal Club, please see Review of Pang et al. The synaptotagmin protein family, characterized by two C-terminal cal...

Less is more: 4:2:1 block.

A34-year-old man presented for evaluation of palpitations. Eight years earlier, he had undergone orthotopic heart transplantation for nonischemic cardiomyopathy. During the electrophysiology study, atrial tachycardia (cycle length, 220 ms) originating in the recipient atrium was present at baseline. Atrioatrial conduction from the recipient atrium to donor atrium was present with 2:1 conduction...
